Walk out the back of La Plage onto your own sand on Minitas Bay, Catalina Island on the horizon and kayaks already on the beach. Nine bedrooms sleep twenty in a beachfront compound in Punta Minitas, with an included cook handling all the meals. The fit: a multi-generation family with cousins and grandchildren together, a friend group of twenty who came for a private beach week, or two families splitting the villa across the children's bunk room and the adult suites.

Mornings start at the Pilates studio for the early workout, reformer and Cadillac and arc barrel set up before anyone else is down. Breakfast goes at the palapa for twenty under the thatched roof. The pool sits just steps from the sand and features a volleyball net, beach-entry steps, a cold plunge, and a jacuzzi, with the tranquil bay stretching out beyond. Lunch is often enjoyed at the pool bar, where a wood-fired pizza oven anchors one side and a gas barbecue the other. As the sun begins to set, the fire pit terrace becomes the gathering place of choice. A generous white sectional surrounds the stone fire feature, creating the perfect setting to unwind while the bay gradually darkens beyond the lawn.
